Leaving the totem pole group of the Indians, Yang Yan drove a Toyota SUV through the pine forest and continued to drive forward. By this time it was approaching evening, and there was only a small afterglow in the sky, and it would be dark in half an hour.

Wu Wei looked at the display screen of the tracker and said: "Lao Qi's car should be nearby, the coordinates of our car almost overlap with that car, we must find it quickly, otherwise it will be difficult to find it when it gets dark." ”

"Could their car have been in an accident or broken down?" said suddenly.

"Maybe, if they break down, God will bless us. Wuwei said with a smile.

After the off-road vehicle traveled along a river in the valley for some distance, Yang Yan first saw the Honda Akula at the edge of the woods in front, and she said loudly in surprise: "Brother Wuwei, look at the car in front of you parked at the edge of the woods." ”

Wu Wei and Ah Yu looked at the edge of the woods a hundred meters away, and sure enough, they saw an off-road vehicle parked there silently.

Yang Yan increased his speed and drove towards the off-road vehicle, stopping more than ten meters away from Akula.

Wuwei jumped out of the car first, and slowly leaned towards the off-road vehicle with a pistol in his hand just in case. Wuwei noticed that there were a lot of messy footprints around the car, and there were many horseshoe prints among them.

The body of the Akula was covered in mud and could not even be seen in color, and one side of the door was still open and not closed. Wuwei walked to the open car door and glanced inside the car, but there was no one empty.

At this time, Yang Yan and Ah Yan also followed, Ah Yan opened the car door on the other side, and said curiously, "Huh, how can there be nothing?"

"It's been here for two or three hours, and of course there's nothing. Yang Yan replied.

I saw Wuwei silently circling the off-road vehicle twice, bending over as if looking for something.

"Big brother, what are you looking for?" asked Ah Yu, puzzled.

"You guys search the car to see if there are any valuable clues?" Wuwei didn't answer Ah Yu directly, and after speaking, he squatted on the ground and looked at it carefully.

Ah Yu climbed into the car and tossed back and forth, found nothing, just about to get out of the car, suddenly found that the car key was still inserted under the steering wheel, he pulled out the car key, and then got out of the car and said to Wuwei: "Big brother, the car seems to have been robbed, nothing is left, but the car key is still inserted on it." ”

Yang Yan guessed that Wuwei must be looking for clues, so he walked up to him and asked, "Brother Wuwei, what did you find?"

Wuwei stood up, looked at the woods in front of him, and then turned back and said, "They were swept away by a group of horseback riders. Ahma, why don't you go start the car and see if you can start it?"

"Okay. Ah Yu took the car key and sat back in the cab, inserted the key and turned it, and the engine really started.

"The car was fine, everything was fine. Ah Yan said as he leaned on the car door.

"Since the car is fine, how can they be taken away?" Yang Yan asked Wuwei puzzled.

Wu Wei pointed to the horses' hoof prints around the car and said, "They were surrounded by a group of horsemen and forced to stop, and no kind of car can outrun the horses in such terrain." ”

"Big brother, did you say they let the Indians take away? American Westerns often feature Indians on horseback. ”

Wu Wei nodded slightly, "Very likely, judging from the totem pole we just passed, there is a good chance that this is the territory of the Indians." In North America, a number of reserved areas have been designated as areas for the exclusive use of indigenous peoples. Outsiders are not allowed to live or engage in other activities in these territories without their consent, and there are hundreds of federally protected tribal areas in North America. Each Indian tribal area has its own tribal council, which generally consists of 1 chief, 2 deputy chiefs, and tribal secretaries, interpreters, etc. The main function of the tribal council is to manage the day-to-day affairs of the tribal people and to deal with the outside world. ”

"Brother Wuwei, I didn't expect you to know a lot, these Indian tribes are not as barbaric as depicted in the movie, how could they snatch them away?" Yang Yan asked with some concern.

"Many tribes, although they have some contact with the outside world, still retain their own traditions and customs, and in their territory the laws of the outside world do not work for them, and they still act according to their own wishes. ”

Hearing Wuwei say this, Ah Yan's eyes widened, and he said in a frightened tone: "The Indians won't capture them and kill them, right?"

"I don't think so, don't think of the Indians as so terrible, the more primitive the people, the kinder, as long as they don't violate their taboos, offend their spiritual beliefs in general. ”

"Big brother, what do you think we should do?" Ah Yu asked as he looked at Wuwei.

Wuwei pondered for a while, and said to the two: "Now the situation is unknown, we can't drive to chase them anymore, first find a place to hide the car, and then go to track them on foot." ”

"They're riding horses, big brother, if they run hundreds of kilometers, we won't be miserable. Ah Yu said worriedly.

Wu Wei smiled and said: "It's not that exaggerated, since the place of their sacrifice is in the woods we passed through, I don't think their tribe will be too far from here, that is, within a radius of dozens of kilometers." ”

At this time, the sun had completely set, the mountains and woods had become pitch black, and it looked gloomy, and from time to time from the distant forest came the howl of wild beasts, Ah Yan felt his scalp tingle, he looked at the gloomy woods and said, "It's so dark, you can't see anything, how can you chase it?" Big brother, you hear the beasts crying......

"Isn't there a strong flashlight in our car? What are you afraid of with a gun? What a coward......" Yang Yan counted Ah Yu nonchalantly, and then said to Wuwei: "Brother Wuwei, you wait, I'll drive the car into the bushes and hide." ”

After Yang Yan finished speaking, he climbed into the car, started the car and slowly drove into the woods next to him.

Wuwei also said to Ah Yan: "Ah Yan, you also drive this car into the bushes and hide." We must track them down overnight, and all our efforts will be wasted in case Olena is in danger. ”

"Okay, as long as you're with your big brother, there's nothing to be afraid of. As he spoke, he got into the Akula SUV and drove it into the woods.

The three men carried the necessary items and chased after them in the light of flashlights, following the trails left by the horses......

As Wuwei had guessed, Olena had indeed been taken away by the Indians.

According to the plan made by Zhan Xiongfei, after Wuwei entered the valley, Lao Qi took two of his men to escort Olina out of Vancouver.

The ultimate goal of Zhan Xiongfei to do all this is to send Olena to San Francisco to complete the task assigned by the Desert Eagle, in his mind, it is impossible for Wuwei to pass through the valley, and even if Wuwei breaks through the valley, he will definitely not be able to catch up with Lao Qi and them, because he has designed a secret route for Lao Qi.

After Wuwei won the first game and entered the valley, Zhan Shaoliang immediately called Lao Qi and asked him to set off immediately.

According to the rules of the game, Zhang Yilu and the two overseers of the Wagley family inspected Lao Qi's car, especially to verify Olina's identity.

Zhang Yilu opened the door of the SUV and saw a beautiful blonde girl in the back seat, he asked softly, "Your name is Orena?"

Olina nodded, and Zhang Yilu asked again, "Do you know Jiang Wuwei?"

Hearing Jiang Wuwei's three words, Olina's eyes immediately turned red, and she nodded vigorously with tears.

"Don't be afraid, Wuwei will save you. As Zhang Yilu spoke, he secretly stuffed the wireless signal transmitter he was holding under the car seat.

After verification, Lao Qi immediately drove away with two of his subordinates. Lao Qi held the map and commanded his subordinates to drive. After leaving Vancouver, they sped east.

They were heading south along the Rocky Mountains, both to avoid border police and to evade the pursuit of inaction. Because Jiang Wuwei couldn't find the mountain path they were walking even if he chased after him.

After entering the mountains, they drove south along a road leading to the ski resort halfway up the mountainside, but they did not expect that because the avalanche blocked the road, they had to take a detour from other places.

The winding mountain paths, which were not only rugged but also extensive, got lost in the valleys and jungles, did not know where to go, could not find the way out, and finally strayed into the territory of the Indians.

Unable to find his way, Lao Qi had to let the driver drive south along the direction of the mountain range, knowing that as long as he went south, he could enter the United States.

They marched along the edge of the jungle at the foot of the mountain, and later found a flat valley, which Lao Qi decided to pass through, so he commanded his men to drive the off-road vehicle into the valley. When we reached the middle of the valley, a clearing appeared in front of me, and I found a group of people jumping and jumping there, not knowing what to do.

When the car approached, Lao Qi recognized the Indians from the way they were dressed, and in the middle of the clearing stood a thick stump with beautiful feathers on it, and the stump was also wrapped with red and white threads, fluttering in the wind. There was also a large bonfire burning nearby, a man with many feathers of various kinds on his head was beating a musical instrument and jumping and jumping, and dozens of other people were standing around majestically, as if they were engaged in a sacrificial activity.

Originally, the flat place at the bottom of the valley was not spacious, and these Indians occupied all the places that could pass, and the men who drove the car saw that the people in front of them were blocking the road, and asked Lao Qi with a sideways face, "Big brother, what should I do?"

Because the lost Lao Qi was already very upset, and now he saw a group of Indians blocking the way, and he couldn't help but scold: "Damn, what the hell are these barbaric guys doing, honking their horns hard and rushing over, it's really annoying......"

The subordinates who drove the car heard Lao Qi say this, and then pressed the horn of the car and rushed forward, the piercing horn alarmed the Indian crowd in the open space, and when they saw an off-road vehicle driving rampantly, people dodged to the side in horror and looked at this uninvited guest angrily.

The wizard, who was singing and dancing around the campfire, also stopped, apparently startled by the sudden intrusion into the car, and when he came to his senses, he suddenly waved his arms and pointed at the buggy and screamed loudly.

At this time, the off-road vehicle had already driven over, and the people in the car also heard the wizard shouting, but they couldn't understand what he was shouting, and one of his subordinates said to Lao Qi: "What is that guy shouting at us?"

"Damn, howl a fart, leave him alone. Lao Qi said impatiently.

The driver increased the throttle, and the SUV kicked up a puff of dust and sped away out of the valley......

Lao Qi never thought that this time he would break into a monstrous disaster.

It turned out that the Indians of this tribe were doing the Day of the Dead. The Indians have to carry out many rituals after death, and their funerals have many special customs and beliefs, among which the Day of the Dead is a very important part.

After the death of an Indian tribe, the relatives of the deceased would go to the forest to cut down a thick trunk, erect it in the center of the sacrificial square, scrape off a piece of bark with a knife, draw a pattern similar to that on a totem pole on the bare part, and then wrap a lot of red, white, and gray threads around the trunk, and insert a few bright and dazzling feathers on the top of the trunk, and dress the trunk like a living Indian, and this trunk is used to symbolize the deceased.

Bonfires are lit during the rituals, and shamans jump around the fire and pray to the gods. The relatives of the deceased wept in front of the trunk of the tree to commemorate and mourn the deceased, and the Indians sent the souls of the deceased to heaven in this way.

It was a tribe called Apaya, which in Indian means condor. A respected elder in the tribe has passed away, and the people of the tribe are celebrating the Day of the Dead. Just as the festival was in progress, the ceremony was suddenly disrupted by a buggy that broke in.

Looking at the departing buggy, the wizard shouted to the panicked crowd: "The evil foreign invaders have disturbed the souls of the dead, the gods are angry, the warriors mount their horses and take them back......"

Under the bewitchment of the wizard, the young and strong Indian warriors ran back to their residences, grabbed their weapons, and rode on horses to chase the old seven's off-road vehicle.

The weapons in the hands of these Indians were no longer like their ancestors who used bows and spears, but shotguns and automatic rifles, and in this respect they were very modern.

In their own territory, the Indians could know where there was with their eyes closed, so chasing the fleeing buggy was as easy as playing a game for them, and in less than an hour more than a dozen horses surrounded the buggy from both sides.

Little did the Seven expect the Indians to chase after him, they left the valley and continued south along a river. Suddenly heard the sound of gunshots behind him, and the people in the car hurriedly looked back, only to see more than a dozen ** Indians in the back, holding weapons in their hands, shouting and chasing after them on horseback, and firing guns into the sky from time to time......

It was the first time they had seen this kind of scene, they had only seen it in American blockbusters before, and they immediately panicked, and the men driving the car asked in horror: "Big brother, what should I do?"

"Quick...... Fast, accelerated...... Accelerate ......" Lao Qi nervously opened his mouth and couldn't speak, he thought to himself, isn't it just passing through your territory......?

The pursuing Indians shouted and fired their guns into the sky, and no matter how good the buggy could outrun the horses on the slopes of the hill where there were no roads, more than a dozen horses surrounded them from both sides, and the riders held the reins in one hand and the spears in the other, pointing their guns at the people in the car, and shouting loudly at the same time.

Lao Qi knew that he couldn't escape, and if he didn't stop in this formation, these Indians would shoot, so he said to the driver: "Stop, damn it, I don't believe that these barbarians can do anything to Lao Tzu." ”

After the car stopped, Lao Qi opened the car door and got down, the arrogance on his body was long gone, and he pretended to smile and said to an Indian on the horse in English: "We didn't offend you, why do you want to chase and stop us?"

Riding on a horse, the Indian put the muzzle of the automatic rifle against Lao Qi's thin chest, and muttered a few words of local language, but Lao Qi didn't understand a word, and immediately jumped down two people from the side, came up and held him down and tied him firmly.

Then they tied up the other two men, and they wondered why there was a kidnapped girl in the car, and without asking too much, they took Olena away together.

The four were taken to an Indian settlement in a basin, a temporary settlement created by carving out a flat land in the woods. Some Indian tribes are still accustomed to wandering, moving to the plains in the fall and winter, and into the mountains in the spring and summer to fish, hunt deer and gather berries. Therefore, a suitable place will be chosen as a temporary residence.

In the center of the dwelling place there is a circular house, which is a simple house made of local materials, with thick branches fixed to the ground one by one, enclosed in a large circle, and built on top of animal skins and thatch. This circular house is generally where the chiefs live.

The rotunda is surrounded by mostly indigenous tents made of bison skin, with some children laughing in the open space between the tents, and women coming in and out of the tents from time to time. These Indian women wore embroidered blouses, long skirts with vertical stripes, and a multi-purpose shawl called a reboso. This kind of shawl can be used for multiple purposes, not only to shade the sun, but also to keep out the cold, but also to carry children, wrap things, this kind of clothing with national characteristics is a clear symbol of the Indians.

The four of them were escorted to the open space in front of the round house, and many women and children ran around them to watch the excitement. One of their captors stooped into the low roundhouse, which was not visible because of a curtain made of animal skins hanging from the doorway.

After a while, four people came out of the round house, and in addition to the person who had just entered, Lao Qi recognized a person who was a wizard who sang and danced in the valley.

The man standing in the middle was a burly man with a red face, and from the beautiful feathered hat on top of his head, it was surprising that he must have been a chief.

A thin man standing next to the chief spoke first and said to the four men in broken English: "Our great sorcerer has said that you have stormed our day of the dead, disturbed the souls of the dead, and angered our gods, and you must be punished......"

When Lao Qi heard that he was going to punish himself, he immediately panicked, these barbarians might have to cut off their own scalps, he had heard before that the Indians liked to cut the scalps of their captives, and immediately said in horror: "We didn't mean to, we strayed into that valley because we got lost, please explain to the chief and the wizard." ”

"It is useless to explain to anyone, you have disturbed the gods, and it is up to the gods to decide the punishment for you. The man waved his hand.

The Indian warriors standing behind them dragged them away without saying anything, and the seventh thought that he was going to kill them, so he struggled violently in fright, and begged loudly not to kill himself, but he didn't expect these Indians to just throw them into a tent and watch them......
